Emerson's enduring reputation, however, is as a philosopher, an aphoristic writer (like Friedrich Nietzsche) and a quintessentially American thinker whose championing of the American Transcendental movement and influence on Walt Whitman, Henry David Thoreau, William James, and others would alone secure him a prominent place in American cultural history. Emerson is often characterized as an idealist philosopher and indeed used the term himself of his philosophy, explaining it simply as a recognition that plan always precedes action. Contents:.

Ralph Waldo Emerson was an American essayist, lecturer, philosopher, abolitionist, and poet who led the transcendentalist movement of the mid-19th century. He was a prescient critic of the countervailing pressures of society, and his ideology was disseminated through dozens of published essays and more than 1,500 public lectures. Emerson gradually moved away from the religious and social beliefs of his contemporaries, formulating and expressing the philosophy of transcendentalism in his 1836 essay Nature.

Neben der "Politeia" ist der "Timaios" der wirkungsgeschichtlich bedeutendste Dialog Platons. In einer Haltung religiöser Verehrung lässt Platon darin den Philosophen Timaios in mythischer Einkleidung die Erschaffung des Kosmos erzählen. So beantwortet der Dialog in Form der wahrscheinlichen Rede so grundlegende kosmologische Fragen wie: Wer erschuf den sichtbaren Kosmos und was war das Ansinnen dahinter? Gibt es ausschließlich nur einen Kosmos, oder existieren mehrere nebeneinander? Was war vor dem Kosmos, und wie entstand die Zeit?

Before Garrison Keillor and Spalding Gray there was Jean Shepherd: a master monologist and writer who spun the materials of his all-American childhood into immensely resonant—and utterly hilarious—works of comic art. In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash represents one of the peaks of his achievement, a compound of irony, affection, and perfect detail that speaks across generations. In God We Trust, Shepherd's wildly witty reunion with his Indiana hometown, disproves the adage “You can never go back.”
